Hendricks County's Downtown
There's a sense of pride that comes with being a part of something special, something bigger than yourself. When citizens, business owners, and public servants came together in May of 2007 to discuss the state of Danville, they made a discovery. They discovered just how much they cared about this small town's future. They also realized how important it is to protect the heart of it: our downtown.
If you'd like to join the effort to revitalize downtown Danville, please do so by eating at the restaurants, shopping the stores, and viewing movies & concerts at the theater. If you are able to contribute financially, please do so by indicating your pledge here.
Just minutes west of Indianapolis, Danville is the county seat and heart of Hendricks County. We invite you to visit Danville's historic courthouse square for dining, shopping, and year 'round special events. 
First Fridays Cruise-Ins on the Square
Be downtown on the first Friday of each month from May thru October to enjoy an old-fashioned cruise-in. Cool tunes fill the air as hundreds of hot rods—classic cars—muscle cars—whatever gets your motor running—can be found lining the streets of the downtown square from 5 to 9 pm. Feel the vibe as the downtown streets rumble with energy on First Fridays!
